A new survey published by the Sociology Institute of Ukraine's National Academy of Sciences suggests that the Ukrainian people are on for the long haul and will not accept less than a full return to 1991 borders. 

Over 40% of Ukrainians asked said they expected the war to continue for another year or more. Only eight months ago, in December 2022, the same answer was given by 26% of respondents. 

83.5% of respondents say that "victory" means a return to the borders of 1991. None of the other possible answers to this question received more than 5% support.
